Description The Japanese Bride awaits marriage...

Taken of my cousin the day before her wedding. She had a modern Malay wedding, but the night before, we had a little pre-wedding session, and she dressed up in a beautifully elaborate kimono to celebrate the portion of Japanese in her.

Taken in October 2001, with Kodak B&W film. Completely don't remember the settings! Scanned it and desaturated the image in Photoshop to get a better B&W quality cos the scan looked a bit odd. Adjusted the contrast as well.

Very nice photo!

Her eyes are wonderfully mysterious, and I love the way she is holding the fan up to her face, increasing that sense of mystery.

Wow. This is a wonderful composition! The contrast is very good (I always have trouble with that in B&W ^_^; and the lighting really sets her apart. Please tell her she is very beautiful, and your photography does her justice!
